Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • whether a satisfactory standard of accommodation would be provided for future occupants, with particular regard to outlook and daylight

What decided it

The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area by introducing built form into an open, verdant site that provides an important transition between suburban and rural character, and would fail to provide satisfactory daylight levels for future occupants.

Plan policies cited: SP24, SP26, QD02, QD03
